Do I have this right? Elon Musk - the guy in charge of preventing wasteful spending - dropped $40M on a Super Bowl ad? We could permanently house 800 homeless veterans for $40M. Or provide five million meals to the hungry. Or replace lead pipes in 8,500 homes.

Does “Golden Age” refer to a time when planes keep crashing, eggs cost $10–15 a dozen, the U.S. is being booed and protested by all our allies, workers are losing their jobs, and Americans’ personal data is being rummaged through by unelected oligarchs and their strange crew of 20-something incels?

Gavin Newsom launched a website to combat the wildfire disinformation spreading about Los Angeles, because people can’t be bothered to do a simple Google search before sharing nonsense. And because people suck! Get the facts: californiafirefacts.com

I keep trying to write something eloquent and just being tired. History matters. Philosophy matters. Languages and literature matter. Indigenous studies matter. Arts and humanities and social sciences matter. All of them. Signed, a physicist

So, according to MAGA - Joe Biden pardoning his convicted felon son is disqualifying, but Donald Trump BEING a convicted felon is not? Do I have that about right?

If you’re afraid that books might change someone’s thinking, you’re not afraid of books, you’re afraid of thinking.

I'm totally OK with being called woke. It just means that I'm showing off my green flags. Happy to follow others with green flags. #woke

Did your parents control what you read as a child/teen? Mine did not, and my life was not ruined. I grew up to be an academic librarian.

My timeline is full of good science, clouds and the occasional cute animal 🙂 I’m not ducking for cover after each post and interacting with actual humans. Order is restored. Long may it continue 🙌🏽

Anyone else feel like we need the prequel to the Handmaids Tale to come out? It seems like these current times would be an appropriate precursor to Gilead.

I feel mislead by all dystopian literature. It's supposed to be a powerful authoritarian government that lords over a cowering population, and and we just need need a few brave acts of heroism to give the people the courage to rise up. Instead it's just half the country being dumb and mean.
